DCA will cover the requirements of a Community Transformation Plan in relation to that of a Community Revitalization Plan and discuss the collaborative, holistic approach DCA encourages communities to take in defining their transformational goals under this new Scoring section.
The webinar will be on February 13th from 2PM-3PM.
